The corona- Patricia Rüf, Johanna Platt, Isolde virus pandemic affected us in ways we could Liebherr, Willi Liebherr never have imagined and presented us with many unprecedented challenges. How does one evaluate such a year from an entrepreneurial perspective and measure success in times like these? We could perhaps start by examining the usual key figures from our balance sheet or the Profit & Loss statement. However, economic success seems to pale in significance at a time when people’s wellbeing is the main priority. Health is and remains the most important consideration. This is why over the past year, our top priority has been to minimise the risk of infection among our employees, their families and our business partners, whilst ensuring that the business con- tinues to run smoothly. This required an enor- mous effort and demanded a great deal from our employees. We would like to take this opportunity to thank our employees in particular. We would not have withstood the challenges of the past year without the outstanding efforts of our nearly 48,000 employees. They have shown incredible commitment under the most difficult circum- stances and have demonstrated a huge amount of creativity and loyalty. We would therefore like to thank everyone at Liebherr for their contribu- tion during these times, which are also challeng- ing on a personal level. In view of this, we feel even more proud to report that the Group’s total 6 Annual Report 2020 turnover has exceeded well over € 10 billion. ards for our customers.

We also gratefully acknowledge the financial support of the Leverhulme Trust (Research Grant F/09 722/A) and the Economic and Social Science Research Council (RES-062-23-0759). Abstract Demographic behaviour is influenced not just by attributes of individuals but also by characteristics of the communities in which those individuals live. A project on ‘Economy, Gender, and Social Capital in the German Demographic Transition’ is analyzing the long- term determinants of fertility by carrying out family reconstitutions of three Württemberg communities (Auingen, Ebhausen, and Wildberg) between c. 1558 and 1914. A related project on ‘Human Well-Being and the “Industrious Revolution”: Consumption, Gender and Social Capital in a German Developing Economy, 1600-1900’ is using marriage and death inventories to investigate how consumption interacted with production and demographic behaviour in two of these communities. This paper examines the historical, political, institutional, geographical, and economic attributes of the communities analyzed in these projects and discusses their potential effects. The aim is to generate testable hypotheses and relevant independent variables for subsequent econometric analyses of demographic behaviour.

  • 1. Lithostratigraphy, Palaeopedology and Geomorphology
    Eiszeitalter u. Gegenwart Band 23/24 Seite 268-280 Öhringen/Württ., 15. Oktober 1973 B. Foreland of the Alps 1. Lithostratigraphy, Palaeopedology and Geomorphology by HANS GRAUL, Heidelberg *) With 2 figures 1. Introduction The northern Alpine foreland, as far as it belongs to the drainage systems of the Danube and the Lake Constance-Rhine Rivers and within the political boundaries of the Federal Republic of Germany will be dealt with in this short summary. The latest papers concerning Quaternary research in the West German Alpine foreland can be found in the first ten references of the bibliography. In addition, these reports can be drawn on for references to older literature. The attempt of RICHMOND (1970) to compare the qua­ ternary stratigraphy of the Alps with the Rocky Mountains will be also gone into. As is well known, PENCK (1901—1909), who, together with BRÜCKNER, discovered the four glaciations of the Alps, named them after the foreland rivers Würm, Riss, Mindel and Günz. Everyone also has cognizance of the didactical principle, whereby the alpha­ betical sequence was applied to rivers which were not too small and at the same time allochthonous to the foreland. It is a fact that PENCK & BRÜCKNER, with their strati- graphical principle of tetraglacialism, were able to connect loci typici, which are still useful, for the glacial series of one of the four ice ages in the area of its like-named river. The present common names for those ice ages divided by true interglaciations have been internationally accepted through the use of the PENCK-BRÜCKNER names for the last (Würm) and the three preceding ones.

This outstanding large number of watercraft raises Age; transport questions on the interrelationship between Federsee bog and the Main European Watershed. At the southern edge of Federsee basin, the riverine systems of Rhine and Danube rivers are separated only by few kilometres of dry land. It is to be suggested that this isthmus between the two large European river systems was used as a portage and part of a traffic system that integrated land and water routes.

  • The EU Federsee Nature Reserve
    Welcome to the EU Federsee Nature Reserve Discover the largest fenland in southwest Germany The Federsee lake is situated in South West Germany, in the District of Biberach. It is the largest fenland in South West Germany and covers an area of 2920 ha completely registered in accordance with the Council Directives 92/43/EWG and 79/409/EWG. It is home to several FFH habitats like Molinia meadows on lime and clay, alkaline fens or bog woodland and also to large populations of rare animal and plant species. More than 270 bird species live here, plus 600 butterfly species, 10 types of orchid, 12 of Germany's 25 bat species and over 700 types of plant. You can explore this unique fen landscape either from path, boardwalk and observation towers or you can join a guided tour from NABU. Take the opportunity to visit the permanent exhibition in the nature conservation centre of NABU in Bad Buchau and learn about the local area. We are happy to advise you on where the most interesting things can currently be seen in the reserve. Entry to our centre is free. The nature conservation centre of NABU The nature conservation centre was founded by NABU, the German Association for Nature Conservation. NABU is the oldest and largest conservation organisation in Germany. It is active across Germany through over 2000 local groups, and has been involved here at the Federsee for over 100 years. As the NABU-Federsee centre is part of a non-govern- mental organization, we finance our work primarily through donations and guided tours.
